Gateway Worship album “See You Move Acoustic Sessions Vol. 2” on WorshipTeam

Gateway Worship has released “See You Move Acoustic Sessions Vol. 2” through Gateway Music and all songs are now loaded into WorshipTeam.com “See You Move Acoustic Sessions Vol. 2” is a recording of some great new songs.

Gateway Worship’s follow-up to 2018’s Acoustic Sessions, Vol. 1 was organically recorded live in-the-round without an audience. The project, produced by Kyle Lee (Michael W. Smith, CeCe Winans, Leeland), features seven Gateway Worship leaders taking turns to lead seven new songs written by 15 songwriters. Featured worship leaders include Gateway Houston Campus’ Leeland Mooring, former 4HIM member and Southlake’s Mark Harris, Grand Prairie’s Lauren Mwonga and Levi Smith, Austin’s Cole Novak, and worship pastors Michael Bethany and Jamie Whisenhunt.

“I will remember Your faithfulness. I’m confident, I will see You move. You never leave me. You’re always near. I know You’re here. I will see You move,” declares Mwonga on the piano-led title track that implores listeners to trust the character of God above all else. The musicians that gathered for this timely recording had no idea how those words would become an anthem for the unexpected season ahead.

“There are times in our lives where we all feel like we show up with nothing but honesty, and it feels messy,” says Mwonga of the song co-written with Josiah Funderburk and Zac Rowe. “God can handle that; He is so kind. He can redeem, restore, revive and renew hope in our lives when we have a surrendered heart toward Him. My prayer is that when you sing this song, you will sense the fresh wind of the Holy Spirit in your life.”

Void of a live audience and stripped of any live production accouterments, See You Move was captured in a closed setting with a full band, bringing a surprising element of energy to an otherwise “acoustic” project.

“We find that when we bring a recording into a large room, the room takes over, and the room requires certain things of you,” reasons Gateway Publishing Executive Director Craig Dunnagan. “We wanted to simplify things. The world is looking for simplicity in the middle of all the complexity it is now facing.”

This idea of simplicity is what inspired the hymn-like “I Have A Savior,” penned by Mooring, Anna Byrd and Lee. The song bears the reminder that the Christian life hinges on the truth of one key verse—John 3:16.

“I’ve always heard, growing up, that while the Gospel is so big and wide, it’s also so simple that even a child can understand it,” shares Mooring of the impetus behind the song. “Moments come in life where you realize, while everything else around you can be shaken, there’s still one truth that will never change: that God so loved the world that He gave His only Son; and if we would believe in Him, we will not perish but have everlasting life.”

The goodness of God permeates the driving “Good To Me” and the poignant “All Your Plans” while the EP’s hopeful “Always Holding On” celebrates the joy found in a transformed life. “All of us who follow Jesus used to be someone else—far from God, following our own way. Then, at some point, we had an experience with Jesus that changed our lives forever. We are a new creation. And not only that, but even when we wander or fall short, the love of God continues to hold onto us,” says Novak, who’s a featured writer and vocalist on “Always Holding On,” which opens the EP. “There is absolutely nothing that can separate us from the love of God in Christ Jesus.”

While many of the set’s personal selections were birthed in collaborative songwriting sessions, cornerstone anthem “At The Mention” came to life during a private moment of prayer and solitude. “Early one morning in my quiet time, the Lord reminded me of the authority that we have in speaking His name,” says Harris, who takes lead on the song. “I began to speak the name of Jesus over every burden that occupied my mind. As I prayed the name of Jesus over my family, my friends, our church, and its leadership, I began to feel so much peace and release from the burdens that I had carried into that early morning.”

During an unprecedented period of historic loss, grief and suffering, See You Move seeks to become a refuge for all the weary souls burdened by the heavy lot this year has dealt. “In the middle of what is an international crisis, we want to lift our voices and sing,” Dunnagan asserts. “We might not see deliverance yet, but we know it has been promised. That is the proclamation we wanted to make over this project and over our lives.”

Philippa Hanna/Integrity Music album “Stained Glass Stories” on WorshipTeam

Philippa Hanna has released “Stained Glass Stories” through Integrity Music and all songs are now loaded into WorshipTeam.com “Stained Glass Stories” is a recording of some great new songs.

Philippa Hanna is an established UK singer-songwriter, whose independent career span over 17 years and culminated in her signing a recording contract with Integrity Music, marking the upcoming release of her first ever worship project. Her music frequently draws upon her experiences of a turbulent youth and the Christian faith she found in 2004, crafting songs that ooze with honesty, authenticity and vocals that are as powerful as they are heartfelt. Philippa Hanna is recognized as a leading light in the Christian & Gospel scene in Europe and has a lot of experience in the mainstream music industry. Beyond being a gifted writer, worship leader and storyteller, Philippa Hanna has been invited to open tours for household names including Lionel Richie, Little Mix, Leona Lewis, Wet Wet Wet and Anastacia, highlighting the broadness of her appeal. Her new single ‘My Hope Is In The Blood’ introduces her new album, set to release in late July 2020. Her last two records took the Official Christian & Gospel Charts #1 spot, with ‘Come Back Fighting’ peaking at #10 on the Official Country Chart. Hopes are high for her 7th studio album, unveiling a new soundscape of worship pulled up from the ground of life experience.

‘Stained Glass Stories’ is a collection of songs born in response to a really difficult season in Philippa Hanna’s life. There were divisions and divorces happening in her family. There was sickness and depression. There were professional struggles and spiritual droughts. This picture evokes broken pieces, fragmented realities, and it is reflected in the album title and its content. ‘Stained Glass Stories’ is a raw, creative, honest response to the many struggles we all face in this life by pointing to the source of Light which brings beauty out of our fragments and shines through our cracked and frail existences. The highly visual aspect of this project is shown from the get-go through the album title, but also through the narrative woven through the shapes on the single covers, pointing to the full picture as the releases roll out. On top of this, we are driving this release with multiple band session videos, podcasts and lyric videos which all involve a high level of creative narrative.
This is a very significant record for Philippa – it’s her 7th album, symbolizing completeness, perfection and rest. Philippa has been on a long journey of sharing her testimony out of the church walls over the past 10 years but she senses God saying, ‘You’ve been telling your story for a long season, now it’s time to tell my story. Bring them home. Show them the cross. Show them that Jesus is the Way, the Truth and the Life.’ Philippa is in a place where she feels she can rest in God’s covering and confidently share His truth with anyone who will hear.
“I’ve tried to write songs that capture the unchanging truth of the gospel, in melodies that people want to sing.” Philippa Hanna

Mark Alan Schoolmeesters -Common Hymnal single “Glory Hallelujah (Christmas)” on WorshipTeam

Mark Alan Schoolmeesters released “Glory Hallelujah” through Common Hymnal and the song is now loaded into WorshipTeam.com “Glory Hallelujah” is a recording of a great new song.

Glory Hallelujah was written by Mark Alan Schoolmeesters (US) and Gabriel Guedes (Brazil) on a Covid-style, cross-continental zoom writing camp at the beginning of lockdown, anticipating what Christmas would look like in a pandemic. The conclusion was that the awe and wonder would be unchanged. That our desperation for our circumstances to change was probably similar to the longing for a savior during the silent years leading up to the birth of Jesus.

Corey Voss & Madison Street Worship/Integrity Music album “Heaven Come Closer” on WorshipTeam

Corey Voss & Madison Street Worship has released “Heaven Come Closer” through Integrity Music and all songs are now loaded into WorshipTeam.com “Heaven Come Closer” is a live recording of some great new songs.

Worship collective, Corey Voss & Madison Street Worship, release their new album, Heaven Come Closer. The group was birthed out of a revival of their tiny church in Shelbyville, Tenn. called Gateway, where they grew from 65 members eight years ago to 1,000 and became an epicenter of life for the community. Heaven Come Closer is the sound of that movement and was recorded live to bring the revival to listeners everywhere with this sophomore album.

The album calls worshipers to declare heaven is not only coming; it has come—a timely promise for this six-member team, which officially formed two years ago under the leadership of singer/songwriter Corey Voss. In addition to leading worship at Gateway for the past eight years, Voss has racked up a list of notable song credits, including Matt Redman’s latest title track “Let There Be Wonder,” which he and his team recorded for Heaven Come Closer. Madison Street Worship, named after the street where the church resides, includes Baily Hager, Harley Rowell, Lee Bataller, Jenna Bataller, and Olivia Calderwood Bush, all of whom wrote on the album.

“We want to boldly walk in the presence of God and to see His Kingdom crash into earth,” shares Corey Voss referring to the heartbeat of Gateway and Heaven Come Closer. “This album is about asking God to draw us closer to Him and draw His Kingdom and His presence closer to us.”

“’Your will be done on earth as it is in heaven,’” adds worship team member Baily Hager, who leads songs “God of Salvation (I Still Believe)” and “Highest Praise” on the new record. “That’s here, right now, and we have the ability to pray that, to declare that through Jesus…That’s the vision of our church, that we can experience the move of heaven here on this earth.”

Voss and the Madison Street Worship team didn’t know how needed these declared promises would be. Releasing in the middle of the COVID-19 pandemic, these songs represent a welcome prayer for the state of uncertainty and despair our nation, and the world, finds itself in. And Madison Street Worship is not taking the timing of their album’s release lightly.

“In light of recent events and the chaos that has been going on in our world, I was relistening to this record and thinking, how powerful is it for us to say, ‘We can’t live a day without you,’” shares Jenna Battaller, who leads on “You Remind Me” as well as the album title-track. “God we really need Heaven to come because the world is so messed up right now. We need you to come and bring peace and set things right.”
